Have you ever thought about how powerful the words we speak are? As for me, I firmly believe that the words we speak have the power to make or break. Undoubtedly, they can fundamentally change the world in which we live, both at the level of society and at the level of an individual. And my experience, which I am going to share further, only confirms this truth.
In my elementary school, one of the things I wish I had not said to my friends were obscenities. I remember that day like it was yesterday. I was in elementary school, so I was around seven years old when I joined the football team of the school. I was one of the nerdy kids at the school. That day, I was wearing a black shirt with the logo of Nike and blue pants with black shoes. Moreover, I wore glasses and braces too. It was one week before the big championship began. My team was going to match the pirates of Sinaloa, and I was excited to play against them.

The day before the championship, my friends and I had a conversation about who was the best. I told them, “I’m better than you guys”. They started laughing and told me that no one likes to see me play. At that moment, I felt pain and anger against them, so I started babbling obscenities. Pablo told me to shut up and to speak correctly because they could not even understand me. They pushed me away and left.
I started crying, but no tears came up. It was just a pain inside my body that I hated to be their friend. I didn’t want to talk with anyone when this happened. I just wanted to be alone. However, I cleaned up my tears with my right hand and continued my life without talking to them ever again.
My life became different from that moment, I was left alone, without friends, and I felt very lonely. Today, I regret having continued this discussion as I could have continued to be their friend and preserve their friendship if it hadn’t happened. Of course, I may find my colleagues one day and talk about what happened, but we must be aware of what we say. The world we live in depends on our words, so let’s begin to change our lives, taking care of the words we say and the way we speak.
